Could The Government Fall This Week?

And as far as chilling events go, you may have heard that the government will face a non-confidence vote this week. Well, in a minority situation anything can happen. However last June Prime Minister Harper tabled a date of October 2009 for the next election.

It’s up to the other parties if they want to short circuit that with a non-confidence vote.

Stock Day could be in wetsuit-mode again, deluding himself into believing that if Harper loses, he gets to be leader.

Or, he could be talking about Bill-C288 (Pablo's bill requiring Kyoto implementation). It is not a money bill, but section 7 compels the government to bring forward measures to meet the Kyoto protocol.

It is somewhat surprising that Harper would not be treating it as a confidence measure, since failure to comply could expose the government to a whole bunch of expensive lawsuits.

BRING IT ON!!!! Canadans have had enough of Harper, people are tired of his control freak neocon robot personality. I pray there is really an election soon, Dion will kick his ass right out of Ottawa and back to Calgary where it belongs.
